It is probably possible to write a script that does this using --print-command-list (https://github.com/taiki-e/cargo-hack/pull/175), but adding a flag to do this in a single command seems reasonable to me.
I'm in the middle of implementing this, and it turns out it's quite complicated with a lot to add.
First of all, cargo can produce a lot of different types of binary objects, and they are all placed under different paths. The behaviour is well-documented here, but still it's a lot of work to implement.
Second, cargo allows target selection (not to be confused with the target triple) using flags like --lib
, --bins
, --bin
, etc. See cargo build -h
. Right now these flags are of "passthrough" type, but they need to be changed to "propagated" type instead so that we can know which objects to copy.
This is all to say that it's more work than I expected. Not too difficult; just tedious. Give me some time.
Is there a way for me to make
cargo-hack
keep the compiled binary after each run? I'm thinking of something like this:This would be useful if for example, you would like to upload them as CI artifacts.
If this is currently not possible, I would like to volunteer to work on a PR, thanks.
